What is a flywheel energy storage system?

A flywheel energy storage system is a mechanical device used to store energy through rotational motion. When excess electricity is available, it is used to accelerate a flywheel to a very high speed. The energy is stored as kinetic energy and can be retrieved by slowing down the flywheel, converting the motion back into electricity.

Do flywheels need more space than battery systems?

Flywheels require more space than some battery systems, particularly if significant energy storage is needed. Their mechanical nature also requires careful siting to minimize risks related to rotational inertia and vibrations. However, advancements in compact flywheel designs are continually addressing these challenges.
